Instructions

Peel the potatoes, wash them, and slice them into 1/2 inch rounds. Place them in a large pan with cold water and salt, and boil until the potatoes are nearly tender. You should feel a bit of resistance when you pierce with a knife.
Drain and gently place them back in the pan, and dry them out over low heat. Ensure they do not burn, stick or break.

The cooked potatoes can be stored in an airtight container and used later.

In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the potatoes, parsley, and garlic to a single layer.
Cook until nice and golden. Season with salt and pepper as needed and serve.
Drizzle some of the cooking butter and cooked garlic over your potatoes. Sprinkle remaining parsley - optional.

Notes

The cooked potatoes can be stored in an airtight container and used later. [/wprm-tip]Cook your potatoes in salted water. This will allow the salt to season them while cooking, and you will use less salt at serving.
Do let the potatoes dry out in the cooking pot. Removing the moisture will ensure faster cooking when cooking with the butter, garlic, and parsley mixture.
Cook the potatoes over medium heat as per the recipe card. You do not want the garlic to burn and become bitter.
